We need to recognise that the whole edifice of our fifth estate of our journalism has been built on a foundation of newspaper journalism and that that foundation is crumbling. The management of the media companies will deny that the end is nigh. I hope they are right.

An expectation is a future object recognised as belonging to me.

You don't have to be rich and famous. You just have to be an ordinary person doing extraordinary things. I'd like more people to know that it's there. Women's achievements still aren't recognised enough in many areas.

Its only when you are a great actor and are recognised for your good work that you become famous. Unless you are in the news for the wrong reasons!

I don't like being recognised I have no interest in being famous at all I just do what I do. If I could be like Captain Kirk and beam myself up and then beam myself down I would!

Quite often I can be in a bookshop standing beneath a great big picture of myself and paying for a book with a credit card clearly marked John Grisham yet no one recognises me. I often say I'm a famous author in a country where no one reads.

When famous people come up to you it's a bit weird but it's an honour really when they recognise you and want to chat to you for a bit.

We need to recognise that what really matters isn't buying more and more consumer goods but family friends and knowing that we are doing something worthwhile with our lives. Helping to reduce the appalling consequences of world poverty should be part of that reassessment.

Experience - the wisdom that enables us to recognise in an undesirable old acquaintance the folly that we have already embraced.

I should like to suggest to you that the cause of all the economic troubles is that we have an economic system which tries to maintain an equality of value between two things which it would be better to recognise from the beginning as of unequal value.
